The PE&MT is qualifying in nature — no marks are awarded, but failure in any part leads to disqualification.
This test ensures that candidates meet the required physical fitness, strength, and stamina to perform the duties of a Delhi Police Constable effectively.

💪 Physical Fitness Tips for Candidates
🏃♂️ Running Preparation
Start jogging 2–3 km daily at a moderate pace.
Gradually increase to cover 1600 meters within 6 minutes (for males) and 8 minutes (for females).
Include sprints (200–400m) twice a week to build endurance.
🦵 Jump Practice
Perform squats, lunges, and skipping daily to strengthen leg muscles.
Practice jumping drills using soft sand or mats to improve balance and landing safety.
🍎 Diet & Hydration
Eat protein-rich food (eggs, pulses, paneer, lean meat).
Avoid junk and oily food to maintain body proportion.
Drink plenty of water; dehydration affects stamina and muscle flexibility.
